    You can claim with the other insurance company but only for the damage that the other driver caused. You would not be able to collect for previous damage. You didn’t say what happened in the first accident. You can talk with your insurance company about the remaining damage to the rear driver side and if you still have the receipts from your repair to the bumper, you can give that to the auto damage adjuster and he will adjust his estimate to account for your out of pocket repair expenses. Hope this helps.

    No. It is illegal to claim prior damage to the latest person who scratched your car. Be careful, it is called insurance fraud and people have gone to jail for trying it
